Detailed explanation-1: -The ovaries are two oval-shaped organs that lie to the upper right and left of the uterus. They produce, store, and release eggs into the fallopian tubes in the process called ovulation (av-yoo-LAY-shun).
Detailed explanation-2: -Where are the ovaries located? Your ovaries are on the right and left sides of the uterus in your lower abdomen. Your ovaries are held in place by several muscles and ligaments in your pelvis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ovulation. When a young person reaches puberty, they begin to ovulate-a process in which a mature egg cell (also called an ovum) that is ready for fertilization by a sperm cell is released from one of the ovaries (two reproductive organs located in the pelvis).
Detailed explanation-4: -A woman is born with all her eggs. Once she starts her periods, 1 egg develops and is released during each menstrual cycle. Pregnancy happens if a man’s sperm meet and fertilise the egg. Sperm can survive in the fallopian tubes for up to 7 days after sex.
